There have also been a few bugs corrected in 8.34.8 along with official Radeon Xpress X1250 support, but other than that, this month serves as more of a maintenance release.

As you see, R600 driver will be released on the 14th of march, it's the Catalyst 7.3, and all AMD drivers are released at the same time as you know. Kernel 2.6.20 support is something that is just a logic step.
